In 2006 LIR established the Distinguished Service Award to be given to an outstanding LIR member or instructor at the spring breakfast meeting. In addition to receiving an award, the recipient’s name is engraved on the LIR Distinguished Service Award plaque housed outside the Office of Continuing Education in Morris Hall.

Any current member of LIR may make a nomination. The Executive Committee reviews the nominations and selects the recipient of the annual Distinguished Service Award.
